BACKGROUND
In most recent times, global concern has been caused by a coronavirus (COVID19), which is considered a global health threat due to its rapid spread across the globe. Machine learning (ML) is a computational method that can be used to automatically learn from experience and improve the accuracy of predictions.
OBJECTIVE
In this study, the use of machine learning has been applied to Coronavirus dataset of 50 X-ray images to enable the development of directions and detection modalities with risk causes.The dataset contains a wide range of samples of COVID-19 cases alongside SARS, MERS, and ARDS. The experiment was carried out using a total of 50 X-ray images, out of which 25 images were that of positive COVIDE-19 cases, while the other 25 were normal cases.
METHODS
An orange tool has been used for data manipulation. To be able to classify patients as carriers of Coronavirus and non-Coronavirus carriers, this tool has been employed in developing and analysing seven types of predictive models. Models such as , artificial neural network (ANN), support vector machine (SVM), linear kernel and radial basis function (RBF), k-nearest neighbour (k-NN), Decision Tree (DT), and CN2 rule inducer were used in this study.Furthermore, the standard InceptionV3 model has been used for feature extraction target.
RESULTS
The various machine learning techniques that have been trained on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) dataset with improved ML techniques parameters. The data set was divided into two parts, which are training and testing. The model was trained using 70% of the dataset, while the remaining 30% was used to test the model. The results show that the improved SVM achieved a F1 of 97% and an accuracy of 98%.
CONCLUSIONS
:. In this study, seven models have been developed to aid the detection of coronavirus. In such cases, the learning performance can be improved through knowledge transfer, whereby time-consuming data labelling efforts are not required.the evaluations of all the models are done in terms of different parameters. it can be concluded that all the models performed well, but the SVM demonstrated the best result for accuracy metric. Future work will compare classical approaches with deep learning ones and try to obtain better results.
